WELCOME BACK, DOLL SMASH COSMETICS!

We’re so excited to welcome back our collaboration with DOLL SMASH | COSMETICS and founder Rachael Wilson for another year at Final Checks Academy!

As part of the collaboration, our trainees will receive Doll Smash Cosmetics products within their professional trainee kits, giving them the opportunity to train and create with products from an industry brand throughout their course.

For us, it’s about so much more than a kit. It’s about introducing our trainees to real brands, real founders and the professional creative industry from day one.

A huge thank you to Racheal and Doll Smash Cosmetics for continuing to support the next generation of makeup artists.
